Only 555 hp Mercedes announced that they are ending the horsepower war with the 518hp e63 V8. I think that hp will stay in the 500 - 550 range for a while. Cadillac, MB, BMW, Jaguar, Audi all have 500+ hp sedans, but is much more horsepower really usable?
I agree with the e60 being a fantastic car but I'm sure once we all see the F10s rolling around the streets for a year or two we will come around to it's charms.

You mean to say the day this car comes out is the day I can suddenly contemplate owning an E60 M5

However, knowing that the V10 will no longer be a BMW engine, makes me think my car might be a collectors piece.
